If there is a silver lining amid this dark stretch for the Jets, it may be that players are facing it head on together, unlike last year when a divide revealed itself on national television and forced the team to take another look at it's chemistry issues.

Mike DeVito said there was a tension last year when the team began to falter that isn't there during similar situations this year.

"You just get a sense, I don't know if it was one person or one thing or whatever, but a sense in the locker room that things were tense, you could sense that division versus this year where everybody is rallying together," he said. "Guys really care about each other."

DeVito thought the clamoring inside the locker room eventually took over every day responsibilities -- something the Jets are determined to avoid this year.

"I think at the end we let adversity get to us, and I think this year we've done a better job of getting through it and sticking together," he said.

Yeremiah Bell, who knew of the troubles having been a member of the Dolphins when the on-field fighting broke out, hasn't seen anything that would lead him to think the team is fractured either.

"No issues," he said. "We've all played this game and we know what's at stake and the ups and downs that have happened. We realize that if we come apart it's going to create more unsettled things. We're okay."

• The Jets gave up three passing touchdowns Sunday, two by Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson and another on a wide receiver pass by Golden Tate. The Seahawks offered up no surprises on either one.

“They were doing the same things that we’ve seen,” safety Yeremiah Bell said. “Some of it was lack of awareness on our part. Some of it was just that we weren’t making plays. We knew what they were going to do. They kind of got us there for a minute, playing hard runs and then had some gadget plays, but for the most part they didn’t do anything that we didn’t think they were going to do.”
